calls.The first exercise of the WCF lab does…

The last session of the training covers the use of WIF in Windows Azure. After a quick introduction to Windows Azure and the infrastructural differences between web roles and on-premises deployment, the session provides practical advices on aspects of
distributed development such as handling NLB…
